Publisher Description
Swift is a new programming language for creating iOS, OS X, watchOS, and tvOS apps. Swift builds on the best of C and Objective-C, without the constraints of C compatibility. Swift adopts safe programming patterns and adds modern features to make programming easier, more flexible, and more fun. Swift’s clean slate, backed by the mature and much-loved Cocoa and Cocoa Touch frameworks, is an opportunity to reimagine how software development works.
This book provides:
- A tour of the language.
- A detailed guide delving into each language feature.
- A formal reference for the language.

GG
it’s good! But i hav to point out one (possible) error.
Language Guide >> The Basics >> Optionals [page: 86]
let possibleNumber = "123"
let convertedNumber = Int(possibleNumber)
// convertedNumber is inferred to be of type "Int?", or "optional Int”
I think it’s a typing error in your book.
Thanks
Very explanatory, amazing book.
Swift is amazing. It is some of the languages you must learn to be successful at app development. While searching tutorials on the internet, Apple kindly provided us with an iBook that we can read for free, and is amazing at the same time. This book teaches you all of the core language, and after learning, you will be able to get some development done with ease. I love this book personally, and I will keep on reading.
Wont Open with Books in Catalina!
This book will not open in OS X Catalina. Says download iTunes! Really??? Steve Jobs is rolling in his grave these days!
